Which Battery for Which Tool (2.0 / 4.0 / 6.0 / 8.0Ah)

Which Battery for Which Tool (2.0 / 4.0 / 6.0 / 8.0Ah)

Why Battery Capacity Matters

Amp-hours (Ah) measure how much energy a battery stores — not how powerful it is. All WorCraft 20V batteries deliver the same voltage to your tool. The difference is how long they last before needing a recharge. Matching the right pack to the right tool keeps you productive and protects your batteries from premature wear.

The WorCraft 20V Battery Lineup

Pack Best For Typical Runtime Weight
2.0Ah Drills, drivers, light cutting — tasks under 20 min [placeholder] [placeholder]
4.0Ah Angle grinders, circular saws, everyday fab work [placeholder] [placeholder]
6.0Ah Paddle mixers, heavy grinding, extended sessions [placeholder] [placeholder]
8.0Ah All-day high-draw tools, continuous production use [placeholder] [placeholder]

How to Choose

A simple rule: match pack size to tool draw and session length. Light tools used in short bursts (drilling anchors, driving screws) run fine on a 2.0Ah. High-draw tools used continuously — angle grinders on stone, paddle mixers through full bags of thinset — need a 6.0Ah or 8.0Ah to avoid mid-job recharges and battery heat buildup.

Running an oversized pack on a light tool isn't harmful, but it adds unnecessary weight. Running an undersized pack on a high-draw tool shortens battery life over time.

One Battery, Every Tool

Every pack in the WorCraft 20V lineup is cross-compatible across the entire One For All platform. Buy the pack that fits your heaviest tool — it works on everything else too.

FAQs

Q: Can I use a Makita battery on my WorCraft tool?
A: Yes — the WorCraft One For All adapter lets you run Makita 18V/20V batteries on any WorCraft 20V tool. See the adapter.

Q: Does a higher Ah battery charge slower?
A: Yes — larger packs take longer to charge. If runtime is critical, consider keeping a second pack charged and rotating them on the job.
